When Skyrim second edition came to birth, I was happy to play it again.
I designed a draconic/oriental character for which I found a lot of hand weapons to choose from but did not found bows to my taste.
So this mod was build up. it contains two bows of high level based on DecimusMaximus work.
I took the deadric longbow and the elven asymetric japanese like "shortbow"
Meshes has been reviewed to skyrim se standards and texture of the elven shortbow was reviewed to give a dark grey and goldish look
There are standalone, not replacing vanilla bows, craftable under dragon tab and upgradable
You need the dragon armor perk to craft these (the three dlc are needed)
